maybe a rusty tin can?

I thought about it today and wondered whether some floaty bits of stuff in
the sea would help - I've never really used (scattering) media, so would
this be a good way to produce the effect or would actual objects be better
to achieve this?

the texture is a bit shameful really:
texture {
    pigment {Tan}
    normal {crackle 2 turbulence 0.1 ramp_wave}
    scale 0.01
}

and at this stage is only intended as a building block to achieve erm...
